THE ETON MON TEM. Yesterday the weather cleared up all its uncertainties, as if t - to look forth in unsullied freshness and pure good feeling, tispon the important triennial festivity, or irreproachable Satur nalia of Eton College. We of Eton may, at least, take the Iliberty thus to appreciate the propitiousness of- the skies, and occasion thereof. Never had so brilliant Montem been dreamt of in Alma Mater, as the (then) forthcoming ! Why :should clouds ttrrow a shade over fancy dresses of unprece faientesd elegance, or relentless showers damp their splendour? It was happily not to be so ; and to all the hopes of the young lstuckmts " Jove consented," not " in a silent shower," but dbrifugh a full summer sun. On Monday evening The usual observances of the period -were commenced with the regatta, when there was no little ,disappointment felt rat her Majesty not having honoured the .display with her P'esence ; but it was probable that her Ma jesty might have t .elt somewhat fatigued from her journey down to Windsor, wKich indeed alone showed the interest she felt la 'the Monter„. Yesterday morning, at an early hour, people from all parts ,of the cot4r.try round Windsor, as well as considerable num bers who, came every hour from town by the Great Western Ra►lro'4d, poured into Eton and the immediate precincts of the "Iler‘ek About 10 o'clock carriages of every description cam, rattlin g in, bringing fresh accessions to the crowd. Nor did "each, or any enter with impunity, without being compelled to pad' respect to the demands of some vigilant and chivalrous :arer of a salt bag. Salt bag, exclaim some of our readers, - not over familiar with the mysteries of an Eton Montem. But 'so it is--as it is said, that of old, these lands of Eton were held by " custom of salt," as well as by a custom more curious, but snow, with other estimable antique observances, abolished, of " hunting a ram"; so now, the said custom of salt has been metamorphosed into a custom of exercising a gentle and gene 2rres erenpulsion towards all good folk who may approach the Scholastic limits on this Montem day, that they may contribute trAncwhat, be the same of gold or silver, towards making up 0% purse for the captain or head boy of the college, on his de parture for one or other of the universities. Thus that olden 'ordinary salt, is converted at once into a salt attic, and into :the salt of all salts, cash—never unacceptable to son of Cam, Isis. or Salamanca. To gather, in, then, this laudable scho lastic impost, there were not wanting most vigilant bearers of - the salt bag, and undeniable they were, even from their imper wonation of Greek hero, or romantic knight, or, peradventure, taftnined Turk, each attended withmeek and proper underling, Armed with formidable mace, or baculum. But many of our readers are, no doubt, familiar with the Eton mode of bagging .the salt. While that excellent process was going forward the scholars 'oF the College were assembling for the great business of the .day. This, it was intended, as we have noted, should be a .special celebration of the old rites, and accordingly we found :amongst all the youths of the establishment a singular display of expensive and elegant costume, which, as they passrd and .re-passed about the town, excited universal admiration. About 'eadelen o'clock, according to previous regulation, they had all - mustered in the great quadrangle, or school-yard of the col- + arge, after having partaken of the Captain's breakfast. Then 1 'wasthe moment to appreciate the costume of each youth and ;the general effect of their review. All the larger boys wore red coats, with swords and cocked hats, those of higher stand ing having epaulets and embroidery in addition. The Cap tain, a gentleman named Williams, son, we were told, of a re spectable bookseller in the town, bore in distinction a star on his &At breast. At the head of the procession were " the " the Captain," and " the Serjcants," each of wisarn was attended by young lads, dressed in the ir- ost elegant lacy dressas, after Hungarian, Polish, Turkish, Greek, `Scotch, or Spanish pattern. The care of many a fair hand had .doubtless been lavished upon these costumes, and, as they were gof most cestly materials, they had nothing about them of the tawridness of the stage, and seemed to belong really and legiti smately to the scene in which they were made to figure. At about half-past eleven her Majesty, after having been rreetived with olden ceremony by the provost and head-master, /was conducted to what is called the election chamber window, 'from whenoe she looked down upon the scene in the quad- rangle—aa scene such a neither Queen, nor yet the antique .buildiolss themselves, nor yet the statue of Edward, the founder of th-s College, had ever, witnessed there before. The bands prPsent, viz., those of the horse and foot guards, struck up 4 ` God save the Queen," as the array of students marched - round the quadrangle, and still as they came before the window -where her Majesty sat, and through whose chequered case ment her beaming countenance could be well seen, their en tisusiastic huzzas made the old buildings around ring again. A great concourse of spectators, who had been admitted to witness this scene, and gazers from every window around, added their voices to these acclamations. The whole scene 'was one of extreme excitement as well as brilliancy. We should have remarked, that the line of march of the students was protected from exterior pressure by the soldiers of the :foot guards, drawn up, as the French say, " en grand tenue." 'The ceremonial here terminated by what is called flourishing .the flag of the school, a proceeding of no ordinary kind, but a sort of military mystery, requiring a strong and dexterous arm, to put a flag with a short staff through more evolutions than are dreamt of in the broad sword exercise. When this led teen very cleverly executed by the ensign on the occasion, three cheers more" were given for her Majesty, who there-. mpon retired to prepare for the excursion to Salt-hill. Thither the college array is already proceeding, marching in order as before, with the horse guards' band at its head, law( thousands of spectators, who could not gain adanitance ttas the quadrangle, girding it on all sides, and gazing in ' -wonder or admiration. Thither also hurry all those ye :Melee, which in the morning (it is now past noon) had 'crowded into Eton, maintaining round the road and path way one unbroken and dense cloud of dust, to the despair 'of poor pedestrians toiling forward under a most relentless torrid sun. These vehicles were numerous enough to re mind one of the Epsom-road on the Derby day, and they Aso much impeded the road to the hill, that they royal trian could only approach its proper position there by the great est exertion. At length the scholars made their way with difficulty to the hill, the top of which was occupied by their ensign with his flag ; and at length, also, the three •carriages and four of the royal cortege were brought aafely to the foot of the renowned eminence, which cock neys will remember to be by no means so lofty or ma jestic as, albeit more abrupt and steep than, Primrose-hill. In company with her Majesty was her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent and her Majesty's lady in waiting. In She second carriage of the twain was Lord Melbourne, and in the third the Marquis Conyngham. Here her Majesty was .again repeatedly and most rapturously cheered, and by a him •drodfold larger assembly than before, all which her Majesty acknowledged by bowing frequently to all around her, and avith the sweetest of smiles. The flourishing of the flag was again gone through on the top of the hill, and, as before, three cheers more" were given for the Queen. Almost im mediately afterwards the royal carriages commenced moving, •and having slowly and with difficulty got upon the open road, -.returned to Windsor, from whence her Majesty proceeded to *awn shortly after two o'clock. The most important business a the day being now transacted, the Etonians adjourned in a *body to Botham's, the chief hotel of the town of Salt Hill, and dined at the expense of their captain. Ere the close of this meal, however, the results of the exemplary exertions of the various salt-bag gentlemen were handed over to the head master, to be examined and reported upon in proper time. - What precise amount they brought we have yet to learn, 'but we should hope, from the promise of the day, that the harvest was unusually rich. Salt Hill presented until night the scene of a fair. Dinners andballs were given, we understand, by the masters of Ilse college in the evening, with which the festivities of the day closed. There was, it was said, some dissatisfaction felt at the cir ecunestance of her Majesty not having remained in Windsor, to :honour the promenade on the terrace with her presence ; but, doubt, there was sufficient reason for her Majesty's return to - town ; and as for the young gentlemen of Eton, they might rest assured that sufficient for the day was the honour thereof --Likey had had the most splendid Montem on record. It may enable our readers more easily to follow the above notice, if we present to them the official order of the day, and also Ittie leading and most important part of the list of the stu• delits in procession. " TPIE ORDER OF THE DAY. " At nine o'clock the military will take their places in the *ehoe)l-yard—will form a passage for the procession, and two lidkow squares, one of which will be near the head-master's .ambers, and the other near the angle formed by the chapel rand school. Into these squares no one can be allowed to enter but the authorities of the college and school, the Eton boys, and such of their friends as shall be introduced by a master in his cap and gown. " The polemen at the lower school passage, at the entrance to the cloister, and to the college hall, are strictly directed to serve the same rules of admission. " The captain's breakfast in hall, is at ten. " The boys assemble in the school-yard, at quarter before eleven. " Her Majesty will be received by a guard of honour, at -the gate of Woton's-yard, at eleven. " The Royal party are met by the provost and head-master ;at the door of the head-master's chambers, through which /bey pass to the door opening into the school cloisters, where :a chair is prepared for her Majesty ; and the absence is called iv 042 head-master. The boys take their places in the pro coeskon, from the hollow square near the chapel, which has brinformed by the military. " Tbre procession passes twice round the school-yard, after vwlsicla the Royal party will be conducted to the lodge by the prote s t ; and will, from the election-chamber windows see the flag flourished in the school-yard. The procession passes ru.ind a third time before the flag is flourished. " After the flag has been flourished, the procession goes forward into the Long-walk, thence through the wicket-gate into Weston's yard, and thence into the Playing-fields, and on 'to Salt Hill, by Slough. " The Royal party, after a short interval, take their car aria.g-,:s at the Provost's door in Weston's-yard, where the guard , of honour is again prepared to receive her Majesty, and pro ceed in the samo line which the procession has taken to Salt Hill. " On her Majesty's arrival near the Mount, the flag is flourished again by the Ensign, at the summit of the Mount. After this the Captain's dinner, and those of the different mouses, begin at the inns. The gardens at Salt Hill are o p en 'to the company presenting tickets of admission, which are to be procured from the inn, at is. each. " The Captain and two salt-bearers deliver the bags at the head-master's table, at Salt Hill, a little before five, and then take therni.ti „ I ltit4frktost's lodge—soon after which hour the absence 'iTcZitscr-Phae Mount, and the procession will return in the sanie"ordi.r - as i m came. Ab sence is again called in the . • . • Thi s paentfo • r ad ssion into M r .

" N.B. No carriages, except those of the Royal Party, and of the Provost, Fellows, and Head-master, can be admitted to Weston's-yard until the Royal party have left the yard. " Officers of the Bow-street Police will be on duty at Eton and Salt Hill." Mar, AN. 3chal ON, Espinasse Lyon, ma. Lyon, mi.

GOODBURN. . . . Lord DENMAN delivered judgment in this case, which was an appeal against a conviction under the Pawnbrokers' Act, for taking interest higher than the rate of 4d. per month for the loan of 205., cr 20 per cent. on the sum lent. The sum lent was in this case 45., and the defendant took 2d. more than the rate of interest allowed by the Act of Parliament. But an ingenious argument was raised for the defendant to this effect, that the :39th and 40th of George 111., considered the sum as advanced for each month, and as entitling the lender to take interest for each month in succession ; and as the de fendant could not take three farthings and one-fifth of a far thing, he was entitled to take the whole penny for each month, or otherwise he would take less than his duo, and, according to that argument, the amount which he had de manded to receive, namely, 111 d., fur the eleven months and a half during which the loan continued was perfectly correct. But, supposing that argument to be good to any extent, and that as a matter of necessity the defendant was entitled to take interest at first in that manner, we are by no means satisfied of, as the Act says " to pay 20 per cent., and no more." We do not think that it is good for every successive month, but that as soon as the period arrived when the inte rest due amounted to a current coin, the necessity was at an end; and that, as he still continued to take interest at the rate of Id. per month he was taking interest at 25 per cent. He was therefore offending against the provisions of the Act, and the sessions were right in convicting him ; and the rule for setting aside that conviction must be discharged. THE QUEEN V. LEDGARD. This was an information against the defendant in the nature of a quo warranto. The information was filed for the pur pose of trying the right of the defendant to the office of Town Councillor of - the Borough of Poole, he not having had at the election a majority of votes. The defendant pleaded that he, being qualified to serve as Town Councillor, was duly elected to the said office. The prosecutor took issue on the plea that the defendant was duly qualified. At the trial of the case before Mr. Baron Alderson, at the Dorset Summer Assizes in 1836, evidence was tendered of the poll ing-paper produced from the custody of the new Clerk of the borough, but no proof was given of such papers having been received by him from the old Town-clerk, nor any attempt made to prove their identity, as the papers by which the voters actual ly gave their votes at the election. The Learned Judgeroceived the evidence, but gave the defendant leave to move for a new trial if the Court should think that he ought to have rejected it. A rule had since been obtained to set aside the verdict found for the Crown. Mr. Erie showed cause against the rule ; and Mr. Sergeant llompus was heard in its support.—Rule absolute. BAIL COURT. THE CLAIMS OF THE BARON DE BODE. Mr. HILL in allusion to a motion he made on Tuesday last for a rule, calling upon the Lords of her Majesty's Treasury to show cause why a writ of mandamus should not issue. commanding them to pay the amount claimed of them by Baron de Bode, and relatiTe to which his Lordship post poned his judgment, said that if there were any points in that case on which his Lordship required further information he was anxious to afford it. _ _ _ Mr. Justice COLERIDGE thought that the Baron de Bode had no legal or specific claim to the money he sought to re cover from the Lords of the Treasury. He was not at all satisfied from the affidavits in support of the application that the Baron de Bode was a British-born subject, or that his case came within the intent and meaning of the convention under which he claimed. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Ju 5. BOTD V. LONDON AND CROYDON RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action of trespass, in which a verdict had been found for the plaintiff, and a rule nisi obtained for a nonsuit, on the ground that the defendants had not received due notice of action. The question was whether the word " person" in the Act of Parliament, was intended to include a company of corporation ; or, in other words, whether the privilege of re ceivinz a month's notice of action was intended to apply to the case of a corporation, although the word " person" only was used. The rule came on for argument to-day, when The COURT held that the word " person" was intended to include a corporation, and therefore that the rule for a nonsuit must be made absolute. EXCHEQUER COURT, Jurra 5. THOMAS, ASSIGNEE, V. CONNELL. This was an action brought by the assignees of one Chetham to recover different sums of money alleged to have been paid by the bankrupt to the Northern and Central Bank of Eng land, of which the defendant is a registered officer, under a fraudulent preference. The cause was tried before Mr. Jus tice Coleridge at Liverpool, when the verdict was for the plain tiff for 7761. 10s. Sir F. Pollock having obtained a rule nisi for a new trial last Term, Mr. Cresswell appeared to-day against the rule.—Rule discharged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Yesterday a man of very respectable exterior, named Gott herd Raake, was brought before the LORD MAYOR, in the cus tody of Daniel Forrester, charged with having forged a letter of credit upon Messrs. Rothschild, and also with having stolen lOU from Mr. Bell, clerk to Mr. Wilke, the solicitor.—Re manded for a fortnight. HATTON-GARDEN. PRICES OF CANALS, DOCK STOCKS, ASSURANCE COMPANIES,&c. &c. &c.

MAD DOG !—One day during the week a small lapdog was seen on the streets in a rabid state, and after running through the principal thoroughfares it was overtaken by the policeman at the shambles, when it was destroyed.

A sail dog must this lady's lapdog of Berwick have been I] CHINESE WATER INIIABITANTS —lt makes one even fancy that these people are amphibious, when we see a mother sitting at needlework in a boat, quietly looking on, while a child of five or six years of age is swimming around it, and another not able to walk is scrambling on all fours about the little deck, liable at every turn to fall overboard. This is, however, not so awful a catastrophe as might be expected, for a precaution is adopted against accidents of this nature. A light wooden affair, sometimes a gourd as large as a bladder, made air. tight, and painted with rings of green and red, is fastened a ith a tape at the back of the shoulders of the new-born infant, which the child wears until it is able to take care of itself. If it should crawl too far and fall into the stream, as frequently happens, the mother has nothing to do but fish it out of the water and put it back to its place again, if the cur rent has not carried it down too far, when it may have been smothered by the length of time its head has been under the water.—The Fanqui in China. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6, 1838. MRS. COUTTS'S << SENT TO COVENTRY." The following is the account given by Mr. Lockhart, in his fifth volume of the life of Sir Walter Scott—as to a visit of Mrs. Coutts to Abbotsford, 1825 : " The author of Lalla Rook's Kelso chaise was followed before many days by a more formidable equipage. The much talked-of lady, who began life as Miss Harriett Mellon, a comic actress in a provincial troop, and died Duchess of St. Alban's, was then making a tour of Scotland as Mrs. Coutts, the enormously wealthy widow of the first English banker of his time. No person of such consequence could, in those days, have thought a Scotch progress complete, unless it in cluded a reception at Abbotsford ; but Mrs. Coutts had been previously acquainted with Sir Walter, who, indeed had some remote connection with her late husband's family through the Stuarts of Allanbank, I believe, or perhaps the Swintons, of Swinton. He had visited her occasionally in London during Mr. Coutts's life, and was very willing to do the honours 'ef Teviotdale in return. But although she was considerate enough not to come on with all her retinue, leaving four of the seven carriages with which she travelled at Edinburgh, the appearance of only three coaches, each drawn by four hot -Les, was rather trying for poor Lady Scott. They contained Mrs. Coutts, Ler future Lord, the Duke of St. Albans; one of his Grace's sisters, a dame de compagnie, a brace of physicians—for it had been considered that one doctor might himself be disabled in the course of an expedition so adventurous—and besides other menials of every grade, two bed. chamber women for Mrs. C.'s own person : ehe requiring to have this article also in duplicate, because in her widowed condition, she was fearful of gtio.,te, and there must be one abigail for the service of the toilette, a second to keep watch by night. With a little puzzling and . cramming, ad this train found accormnodetion ; but it so happened that there were already in the house several ladies, Scotch and English, of high birth and rank, who felt by no means disposed to assist their host and hostess in making Mrs. Coutts's visit agreeable to her. They had heard a great deal, and they saw something of the ostentation almost inseparable from wealth so vast as had come into her keeping, and I need not observe how effectually women of fashion eel) contrive to mortify, without doing or saying a.nething that shall ex pose them to the charge of actual incivility. Sir Walter during dinner, did everything in his power to coun teract this influence of the evil eye, and something t i overawe it; but the spirit of mischief had been fairly stirredl; it was easy to see that Mrs. Coutts followed these noble dames to drawing-room in by no means that complacent mood which was customarily sustained, doubtless, by every blandishment of obsequious flattery, in this mistress of millions. He cut the gentleman's sederunt short, and soon after joining the ladies, managed to withdraw the youngest, and gayest, and cleverest, who was also the highest in rank (a lovely Mar chioness) into his armorial-hall adjoining. I said to her,' he told me, I want to speak a word with you about Mrs. Coutts. It is, I hear, not uncommon among the fine ladies in London, to be very well pleased to accept invitations, and even some times to hunt after them, to Mrs. Coutt's grand balls and fetes, and then if they meet her in a private circle, to practice on her the delicate manonvre called tipping the cold shoulder. This, you will :Tree with me, is shabby ; but it is nothing new to either you or me, that find people will do shabbinesses for which beggars might blush, if they once stoop so low as to poke for tickets. I am sure you would not for the world do such a thing, but you must permit me to take the great liberty of saying that I think the style you have all received my ,guest, Mrs. Coutts in, this evening, is, to a certain extent, a sin of the same order. You were all told a couple of days ago that I had accepted her visit, and that she would arrive to-day to stay three nights. Now, if any of you had not been disposed to be of my party at the same time with her, there was plenty of time for you to have gone away before she came ; and as none of you moved, and it was impossible to fancy that any of you would remain out of mere curiosity, I thought I had a perfect right to calculate on your having made up your minds to help me out with her.' The beautiful Peeress answered, I thank you, Sir Walter, you have done me great honour to speak as if I had been your daughter, and depend upon it you shall be obeyed with heart and good-will.' One by one the other " exclusives" were seen engaged in a little tete•a-tete with her Ladyship. Sir Walter was soon Satisfied that things had been put into a right train ; the Marchioness was requested to sing a particular song, because' he thought it would please Mrs. Coutts. Nothing could gratify her more than to please Mrs. Coutts. Mrs. Coutts's brow smoothed, and in the course of half en hour she was as happy and as easy as ever she was in her life." ELECTION COMMITTEES. YESTERDAY. (From our Second Edition of last night.) WESTMEATH. The Committee decided that the vote of Edward Lacey was a bad vote, and ordered it to be struck otf the poll. Mr. TIIESIUER then renewed his application for a Commission to ex amine witnesses in Ireland. Mr. WRANGIIAM opposed the application. After a protracted discussion, The CHAIIMAN announced the Committee had resolved on granting a Commission as prayed. Adjourned at half past four o'clock until two o'clock tomorrow.

The Syndicate appointed May 16, 1635, " to consider whether any and what alterations can be advantageously made in the present mode of examining the candidates of Mathematical Honours;" beg leave to make following report to 4he senate. There are at present five days of Examination commencing on the Wednesday proceeding the first Monday in Lent term • It is recom mended that in future there be days of examinatien commencing on the Monday preceding the first Monday hi Lent term. It is further recommended that the present division of the candi dates into four classes be discontinued ; and that in future the same questions be propesed throughout the examintion to all the persons whom the Moderators shall judge, from the public exercises in the schoo's, to be qualified for examination as candidates for Mathematical Honours! That, as at present, the examination on the first day extend only to such parts of Pure Mathematics and National philosophy, as do not re quire the methods of the Differential Calculus ; • That on the second and third days the questions from books include, in a,idition to the above subjects, the parts of Natural Philosophy some what more advanced and the simple applications of the Calculus ; That on the fourth and fifth days the examination extend to subjects of difficulty. care, however, being taken that there be in each paper a due proportion of questions selected from the lower subjects ; That on the sixth day all the questions proposed be selected from the higher parts of the subjects of examination ; That there be not contained in any paper more questions than students well prepared have generally been found able to answer within the time allowed for that paper ; That during the examination the distribution of the candidates in the examination rooms be-left to the discretion of the Moderators; That the days and hours of examination be regulated according to the subjoined plan ; That tho questions proposed on the first four days be fixed upon, and the answers to them examined, by the Moderators and Examiners ac cording to the plan ; That the questions proposed on the last two days be fixed upon by the Moderators and Examiners in common ; but that the duty of ex amining the answers to those questions be apportioned amongst the Mo. d,rators and Examiners according to the plan ; That the result of the Examination be published in the Senate-house on the morning of the Friday succeeding the first Monday in Lent term, at nine o'clock ; but if it should happen that the relative merits of any of the candidates are not then determined to the satisfaction of the Mo dderators and Examiners, that such candidates be re-examined on that day ; That this mode of examination commence in January, 1839, PLAN FOR THE EXAMINATION.

A writer of this class in the Chronicle derided Lord Brougham, for saying that practically there are no poor laws in Scotland, and then with a taunt re plied that his Lordship knows there are poor laws. He further at t e mpted to prove, that all the agricultural improvements in the lowlands were owing to the poor laws, and he very properly alluded to Mr. Dawson of Frogden. We admit the influence of the latter, but deny that of the former. It is well known that the Poor Laws have hardly passed the Forth, and certainly not the Tay, and that in the counties of Perth and Forfar agriculture is in as great perfection as in East Lothian or Berwickshire. But Lord Brougham need not repel the attack. The writer in the Chronicle yesterday morning does it for him, by stating that there are about 70,000 persons destitute in the Western Isles an d Highlands of Scotland, and then asserts that such a number of destitute persons never at one time existed in England where Poor Laws exist. CONTROVERSIAL DISCUSSION BETWEEN THE Rev. Messes. MAGUIRE AND Gaston —The columns of the Dublin Papers arc heavily laden with the report of the polemical discussion now pro ceeding at the Rotunda. The Dublin Evening Post, speaking of the con troversy, says " It is most singular that, no(Withstanding the vast libraries which have been written on the subject, the public appetite seems to grow upon what it feeds on. Fur the last three days the Round room of the Rotunda has been crowded- to the brim—and the run upon the papers containing the accounts of the controversy, have been, we understand, extraordinary. As to the merits of the combatants—it would not, perhaps, be fair to speak, flagrante beg,. We cannot help thinking, however, that it was a very comical proposition of Mr. Gregg, to maintain that the Law Church of Ireland was the Church of the Apostles—but enough." The proximity of the London and Birmingham Railway to Leighton Buzzard causes a great influx of travellers from the surrouiiding neighbourhood, a vast number getting up at this station at all times of the day. Sixteen trains pass regularly every day; one passed a few days ago with thirty-two carriages attached, each contain ing about twelve persons. On Friday last an engine, without carriages attached, performed the distance from Euston-sbuare to Leighton, a dis tance of 40 miles, in 37i reinutes.—Bedford Uercury. MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

Mr. Ross of Cromarty rose up and moved that all the tolls throughout the county should be discontinued and !Art down. This declaration caused both merriment and surprise in the meeting. General Munro of Teaninich seconded the motion. It now became necessary to say something against the joke; and Mr. Hay Mackenzie moved a direct negative to the motion, as the subject was too important to be disposed of in so summary a manner, the meeting b e ing qte unprepared for such a motiou-, and a great number of the heritors being absent. Mr. Davidson of Tulloch seconded the views of Mr. Hay Mackenzie, but of Mr. Ross of Cromarty had surveyed the ground, and arranged his plans, and he carried the motion by a majority of 14, the numbers being 22 to S. How the' roads are to be maintained was not resolved upon by Mr. Ross or his friends.—lnverness Courier.

Earl Granville, her Majesty's Ambassador at Paris, has trans mitted to Viscount Palmerston, her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, an official letter (of which the follow ing is a translation), which has been addressed to Earl Granv inf ille by the Count Mole, French Minister for F orei g n Affairs, notiyg the establishment of a blockade of the ports of Mexico, against all vessels, except British packet boats , employe d in the conveyamce of the mails : (TRANSLATION. ) My Lonn,—The Mexican Government having refused to re dress the numerous grievanc e s for which the Minister Plenipoteo tiary of the King, at Mexico, had been directed to demand reparal-, tion, the Commander of the French naval forces before Vera Cruz" has found himself under t he necessit y of ado p ting, as by his in- , s t r uctions lie was authorised to do , the measures which in such case, the dignity of France, and the justice of its claims, re quired. Accordingly all the ports of Mexico have been declared to be in state of blockade; and this blockade, which became effective so far as regards Vera Cruz, from the lgth of April last, will, without del of . have taken effect in like manner with respect to the other ports o Mexico. In making known to you ilif!SC measures, I hasten, my Lord, to add, that the orders given oy the Government oft King for insuring the execution of th e m are so conceived is e to reconcile the practical exercise of a legitimate r!,ttlit, with the re spect due to the independence of neutral flags, and with the sin cere desire to cause the least possible inconvenienne to the navigation of neutral vessels. Of this the Governmeot of her Britannic Majesty will find a special proof in the measure whiell 0 '" ernpts British packet boats employed in the conveyance of correspoo' dente, from the application of the rules of the blockade. This eA" emption has appeared to us to be an indirect consequence of the littoral principle sanctioned by the 13th article of the Post Office Convention of 14th June 1833, which authorises the continuation of the Post Office arrangements between the two countries, even in case of war. I request you to be so good as to convey the present notification to the knowledge of the Government of her Britannic 'Majesty. (Signed) MOLE. Paris, June 1, 1838. WHITEHALL, MAY :29, 1838.
